Criss Cross Jazz 1376 CD

Lage Lund

Idlewild

﻿

Available: February 17, 2015

Along with label mates Mike Moreno and Adam Rogers,
guitarist Lage Lund is one of the most distinctive guitarists on the
current scene. His previous three Criss Cross dates have established
his credentials as an up and coming talent of great promise.

For his latest effort, he brings back to the fold his close associates
Ben Street on bass and
Bill Stewart on drums, both heard on Lund's previous sets,
Foolhardy (Criss 1360) and
Unlikely Stories (Criss 1321).

The difference this time is that he forgoes the piano accompaniment for a bare
bones trio approach that is quite refreshing and a further step forward.

The mix includes a few originals and a nicely chosen selection of standards,
including the iconic Bobby Hutcherson piece
Isn't This My Sound Around Me.
